St. Peter after travelling round the earth reached to the old lady’s cottage where she was baking cakes. He was very hungry and fainted due to fasting, and asked her for a single cake from her stock of cakes. The lady was selfish. She baked cake from tiny kneaded dough, but it seemed larger to give away to the saint, so she baked another one which turned out to be the same as the first cake. Finally, she made another cake from a very tiny scrap of dough, which was as thin as a wafer and she couldn’t part it. So, she put all of them on her shelf.
